Chapter 547: A Successful Trip to Iran
"But ......"
"But?" Hearing Chen Geng's tone, there seemed to be a turnaround, and Muhammad Ahmed's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked, "But what?" Chen, no matter what kind of conditions you have, you say, we can discuss. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Chen Geng said: "But if you can persuade Tehran to give you this project, we have no opinion." ”
Mohammed Ahmed suddenly looked disappointed, he thought that Chen Geng had given him a chance again, but he didn't expect it to be so.
Looking at Mohammed Ahmed's face as a dead father and mother, Chen Geng smiled secretly in his heart: Now I know that I regret it? Why did you go early!
Chen Geng has no sympathy for these people in Chakhbahar: I treat you as friends, but since you didn't treat me as a friend from the beginning, then don't blame me for not treating you as friends from now on, since you are just a simple business partner, then, business is business.
Compared with the group of turtles in Chakhbahar who only look at their own one-third of an acre, these guys in Tehran do not know how much higher they look at the problem than the group of turtles in Chakhbahar, and after listening to Chen Geng's introduction to the situation of Runhua Industry, President Khamenei was greatly surprised: "Mr. Chen, I really didn't expect that there would be such a large-scale passenger car and motorcycle manufacturing enterprise in your China. ”
Chen Geng nodded with a smile, and said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "Your Excellency, China has the most complete range of industries, and there are only three such countries in the world, namely the United States, the Soviet Union and China, which I believe you also understand." ”
Khamenei nodded, can he not understand that China's military industry has transferred at least billions of dollars to Iranians in recent years, and China is also one of the few countries in the world that can provide Iran with a full range of military products.
Chen Geng continued: "Frankly speaking, although our technology is not the most advanced, but it contains unlimited potential, and in the technical point of view we are also catching up quickly, I admit that we still have a certain gap with the automobile companies in developed countries such as Europe and the United States, but from the perspective of technology, the gap between us and them has been shortened to about 10 years, in terms of design concept, even ahead of them."
You may not know that we are not only the largest motor vehicle manufacturing group in China, but also the famous Japanese automobile manufacturer Suzuki has also introduced a product from our company, and entrusted us to export a product, and they have established a cooperative relationship with Fiat Automobile in Italy, and Wolfsburg Automobile Group in the Federal Republic of Germany also wants to cooperate with us. ”
"Really?" President Khamenei couldn't be calm anymore and asked movingly.
"There's no way I'm going to tell such a clumsy lie in front of you, can I?" Chen Geng said with a smile.
Khamenei was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: But isn't it, as long as you want to know, this kind of thing is not a secret to you at all, Chen Geng really doesn't need to tell such a clumsy lie in front of him, what good is it for him?
As the president of Iran, Khamenei has some understanding of the technical level of the Japanese automobile industry, in Iran, land transportation is not very convenient, is unanimously recognized by everyone, but also in the entire Middle East unanimously recognized as the best land transportation is the Japanese Toyota Motor's Land Cruiser LC70, although he does not know much about Japan's Suzuki Motors, but since the technology of Runhua Industry can be introduced by Japanese automobile companies, it is enough to prove from the side that the technical level of Runhua Industry has reached a certain level. Otherwise, how could it be possible to convince the Japanese?
Thinking of this, Khamenei quickly made up his mind in his heart, looked up and asked Chen Geng: "Mr. Chen, do you know anything about our Iranian Khodro car?" ”
Hodro Cars? Of course, Chen Geng knows, ikco, Khodro means "car" in Persian, and if you use a literal translation, Iranian Khodro car means Iranian car.
Khodero Automobile is Iran's largest, but also the Iranian government-controlled state-owned joint-stock automobile manufacturing group, in Iran is the second largest industrial enterprise after the Iranian National Oil Company, but also the largest automobile manufacturing enterprise in the Middle East, with France Renault, Japan Suzuki and France Peugeot have cooperation, in 2009, the total annual production capacity reached 1.1 million, the market share is as high as 65% to 70%, in Iran, Khodro Automobile can be considered Iran's "FAW".
When Khamenei mentioned the Hodro Automobile Factory at this time, did he want Runhua Industry to cooperate with Hodro Automobile?
Well, now Iran is being tightly blocked and surrounded by the West, and Khodero Motors is inevitably affected, as Iran's largest car manufacturer, they should now be in the most difficult stage in history, I'm afraid that Khamenei, the president, is also anxious about the situation of Khodero Cars, right? Well, now is the best time to do so.
Chen Geng quickly made up his mind, and while quickly calculating what kind of conditions he should come up with, he nodded slightly and said: "I know something, Khodro Automobile is the largest automobile manufacturing enterprise in the Republic of Iran, and its products not only sell well in Iran, but also have considerable influence in the Middle East, North Africa and West Asia, and are one of Iran's pillar and strategic enterprises. ”
After a pause, he emphatically said: "If foreign car manufacturers want to enter Iran, Khodro Motors is definitely one of the most worthy of consideration." ”
He believed Khamenei should have understood what he meant.
Of course, Khamenei understood the meaning of Chen Geng's words, not to mention that this was what he meant, otherwise why would he be idle and have nothing to do mentioning Khodro's car? Immediately took advantage of the situation and said: "If Mr. Chen is interested in going to Hodro Automobile for inspection, I can arrange for someone to accompany him." ”
Chen Geng smiled and nodded: "Thank you so much." ”
………………………………
At the beginning, Hodro Automobile looked down on Runhua Industry, and always felt that an automobile manufacturing company from a country that produced such backward weapons could be so powerful. But after looking at the product catalog and cooperation partners of Runhua Industry, he was immediately stupid: even Japan's Suzuki is their cooperation partner?
Last year, the presidential office issued a directive asking Iranian automakers to carry out a "national car" program -- does that sound like the Führer's Volkswagen program? -- As the largest automobile manufacturer in Iran, Khodro Motors feels Alexandria about this "national car" plan of the presidential palace!
Why Alexander, because although Hodro Automobile is the largest automobile manufacturing enterprise in Iran, but it has no technology, although it was founded in 1962, although it has gone through 26 years of wind and rain, but the production of several products are all from Europe, a bit like FAW before the 80s, although it can produce liberation, but it can only produce one or two models, after receiving the order of the Presidential Palace, their first reaction is to look all over the world to find models that meet the standards of "national sedans".
With Peugeot 504 sedan production experience, of course, instinctively fell on Peugeot cars, Peugeot in 1984 just produced a small car: Peugeot 205 fell into the field of vision of Hoderot cars, unfortunately, the French is one of the most hilarious countries in the blockade of Iran, the introduction of Peugeot 205 plan was stillborn before it was released.
After the failure of the plan to introduce the Peugeot 205, the unwilling Hodrow Automobile once again surrendered its eyes overseas, this time, they did not dare to say that they looked at Europe, but smartly placed in Asia, Suzuki Motors, which has a "mini car expert", entered the eyes of the Hodro Automobile executives.
After some analysis, Hodro Motors believes that the Suzuki Alto car is simply tailor-made for the "national sedan" program of the presidential palace.
Before Hodro Motors could contact Suzuki of Japan, the executives of Hodero Motors suddenly discovered that Suzuki Motors had introduced a model from a Chinese auto company, which seemed to be more suitable for Iran than Alto......
After learning about Runhua's "Big Dipper" model, Hodero Motors quickly made the decision to inspect Runhua Industrial's "Big Dipper" model - this is to complete the political task - and at the same time, Hoderow Motors thought that it must also introduce Runhua A6L this model.
No way, Runhua A6L this model is too tempting and deceptive, more than 2830mm wheelbase is the size of a standard D-class car, but the price is equivalent to a C-class car, and the vehicle shape is solemn, it is simply the first choice for standard high-end business cars.
Introduce!
Must be introduced!
In just 3 days, Hodro Automobile and Runhua Industry have reached a preliminary cooperation intention: Hodelow Automobile introduced two models, Beidou and A6L, from Runhua Industry, and the total amount of the entire cooperation project reached 370 million US dollars.
Looking at Chen Geng, who signed the memorandum of cooperation, the following comrades of the Ministry of Commerce, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs all smiled crookedly: the equipment that needs to be introduced for this project is handed over to Runhua Industry to introduce, Chen Geng said, the equipment we can produce will give priority to our own people, and only those who cannot produce will be imported from abroad...... It's fun to think about.
"By the way, I heard that the French are going to Runhua Industrial for inspection, is it true?" Director Zhang turned his head to Li Xiaoshuang and asked.
"Of course it's true." Li Xiaoshuang smiled from ear to ear: Although I don't know how the French want to cooperate, I feel beautiful when I think about it. (To be continued.) )
